  1. Thanks for excellent review! Now TaylorMade has released the new JetSpeed
    driver, fairway and hybrid, so hopefully you’ll soon do some new reviews
    and continue your thoughts on TM’s market model.?

  2. Look guys. I have sey of burner 2.0, titleist 804, mizuno tziod pro, adams
    a120s. I love yhem all. I play with all of yhem each of thesr companies
    produces irons they day does tjis or that better than ones before it and to
    certain extent they may…IF YOU hit them correctly. Mark is one that says
    you swing into the club what you get out so the biggest advantage we can
    have is our own swings. Invest in your swing and any of these irons will
    serve you well. You swing even decent you can actually tell the minor
    differences and that alone is gratifying. We all get too caught up in
    technology i get that too but i enjoy hitting my a120s a ton and next day
    bang it around with 804 titleist and shoot 78 or so with both. How many of
    us can say that??

  3. Decent, honest review. Good clubs from the world’s greediest golf
    manufacturer. You said as much as you dare! The Top Ten Site put the case
    against TaylorMade’s marketing strategy more bluntly – but I think they got
    sued!?

  4. “each club is designed individually…um…ok…if they’re not doing that
    in their other sets, God help you” lol ?

  5. A benefit for the end user, with TM pumping out clubs so fast, is that you
    can get the previous model for half the price of the new one. This is, of
    course, if you don’t mind being the guy with last years clubs….or last
    months clubs in TM’s case. If you are a serious golfer looking to perform
    to your best it shouldn’t matter what club is in your hands but rather
    fitted to you. If the improvement from model to model was that great the
    pros would be all over the new model but we see them take many months(
    sometimes years) to make the change. even then we see them with their old
    fairway etc from 10 years ago still in the bag. “inches at a time”?

  6. the reviewer seemed a bit skeptical of the club and consistently made fun
    of the name ‘speed blade’. i demoed several clubs such as the ping g25,
    titleist AP1 as well as the mizuno jpx ez that he claims are the clubs he
    uses. the speedblades were hands down the best club i tested. easy to hit
    and you could work the ball similar to the Titleist AP2s which are harder
    to hit for a mid-handicapper. the ball literally blasted off the club face
    even off off center hits with amazing feel. best club out there hands
    down. who cares if taylormade is doing aggressive marketing. they should
    since they have an amazing product. ?

  7. Hey Mark, I was wondering also if you can compare Callaway’s X-22 Tour
    irons, the best irons ever made, to Taylormade’s Speedblades??

  8. I bought em because I liked the look of them, liked the idea of longer
    distances of thin strikes which I don’t believe is true at all, I do love
    the loud crack sound on those beautiful high launching 5 iron strikes but
    these are my first set of new irons after my beginner used set of brosnans?

  9. Even before Mark made this video i think everyone kind of knew that the
    “speed pocket” was just another club off the production line of Taylormade
    that does nothing different. We all know Adidas/Taylormade are in trouble
    financially so they will continue to bring clubs out at an alarming rate.
    Mark could you create a video where you can compare a cheap budget set of
    clubs aimed at a high h/c and a very expensive set of clubs aimed at the
    same people so we can see value for money please 😀

  10. Mark I just bought these iron an I’m hitting them amazingly longer I put
    them up against all the newest clubs an these carried a lot farther

  11. Seems to me that he likes the clubs and has a fair amount of contempt for
    their marketing practices.

  12. Seems to me that the more useful review would be with a 4 or 5 iron, a club
    that is generally more difficult with which to get the ball up. I want to
    know about shot dispersion, too. You know, game improvement stuff.

  13. They say the speed pocket launches the ball higher , maybe it works but its
    just a reason to deloft it more and claim distance

  14. Hi Mark, do you think you could review the 714 ap2? And perhaps compare
    them to the Mizuno mp-54 and the Ping S55? I’m currently playing off a 13
    handicap

  15. Curious if you have you compared it with the JPX when hit lower on the
    face? I think that’s the area they were touting as improved due to the
    slot, and where more amateurs were tested to hit.

  16. Hi Mark, I know not directly related to this vid but what wedge loft
    compliment are you using now and has it changed since you moved up to the
    jacked up lofts of your current irons?

  17. @MarkCrossfield, I think you’re missing the point of the speed pocket a
    little bit. Its there to help with strikes that are thin. Maybe if you do a
    comparison of low strikes (thin shots) with the rocketbladez, speedbladez,
    and your JPX 825 then people might understand your point.
